the thing is even if some of you people don't care about achievements, there are still plenty of people who like them. If you don't like them just ignore them, they don't affect gameplay in any way so why shouldn't nintendo add them to their consoles. Personally I liked the xbox achievments, but I don't really care for steam or ps3 achievments. I just like the total score I earn for my profile rather than each individual hate.
Achievments are basically the same thing as all those useless unlockable things nintendo stuffs their games with or like the high score systems a lot of classic games had. Its just a number or a useless trophy, or artwork, but at the same time its satisfying earning them for some people, so why not include them.
